The first edition of this rather anarchic show went out at 5:15 on a Saturday evening, just after World Of Sport - it was made by a company that made attempts at providing pop music shows for ITV with titles like 45 and Supersonic, aimed at teenage kids - believing that this was aimed at a similar audience, it was put out then - nobody thought to check up on its content - unfettered swearing, all punk and new wave acts - only when John Dowie did a song about “the smiling, crawling, stench-appalling snotty grotty Dutch” and referred to them as “woggy dagoes”, all subsequent editions were screened at something like 11 at night, if at all!
0:47s. Stage manager and singer Fay working in unison? Brillant looks like it is pre-rehearsed and pre-arranged at the soundcheck or pre-production discussion stage?
Revolver was recorded in Birmingham and the audience reflected that. In London, the Bromley crew look had inspired a punk "uniform". But outside London, it was still mostly tank tops, wide collars, shoulder length hair, in addition to the minority who had the money and awareness to "dress like a punk"
@@shinywarm6906 Spot on. What do (younger) folks think or expect? Mohicans? I didn’t see one of those until the early eighties. Not all fans of the bands that played Barbarella’s dressed ‘punk’.
@@shinywarm6906 True kids in 1978 had the punk energy but still got their clothes from high street chains with their 1976 range of fashion not Vivienne Westwood's 1976 line of course. That energy proved punk was more than a fashion at the time, it was a spirit and energy in the youth manifesting and as a teen in 78 I think that year caught the spirit of the time just right before punk became a uniform in fashion and sound and was taken over in the 80s by self-righteous sanctimonious bores and borderline hippies in bondage gear and mohicans.

We're SOOO lucky to have such treasures like Peter , the Revolver show, THE REZILLOS ( !!!!!! ) ...at our fingertips now.,
Jo Callie's anticipated 1980s and beyond baseball cap crap..
I emailed Joe..never heard back 😥
I wrote to him on messenger... still waiting for hear back 👀
I’ve seen him cutting about Morningside/Bruntsfield over the years
Love the "you're on!" At 0.47
Watching this in 2022 and loving it!
Peter Cook

Rezillos rule
!00% live, silly and brilliant and.. Peter Cook? This kills! Thanks, Paul Lockhart!
If it's 100% live, and it certainly SOUNDS live, how does Jo Callis manage to swap guitars during the performance?
1'36 : Wrong note from the bass player and Fay Fife lookin at him !
Lots of notes in that song!
Well spotted!
Very good bass player
fantastic, we used to Pogo go to this in the day at the Northwich Memorial Hall on a Wednesday night
Interesting that the producers of the short-lived "Revolver" chose to recruit their audience from the local branch of C&A.
Indeed. Mug punters.
